CHILDREN celebrated 80 years of York Castle Museum by creating a time capsule to add to its collection.
Knavesmire Primary School pupils have visited the museum since it first opened its doors on April 23, 1938.
Exactly 80 years later, the school's current pupils handed over Lego bricks, a Kindle eBook reader and a Raspberry Pi computer among other items for the time capsule.
Sarah Yates, assistant curator of social history learning (informal) at the museum said: "It is fantastic to have them here today to mark our special birthday.
"Hopefully representatives from their school will visit in 80 years in 2098 when the capsule will be opened, to spark conversation and curiosity in pupils of the future.”
The school won the museum's 80th birthday competition and is among five York primary schools recorded by the 1938 curator, Violet Rogers.
